    Final Four Preview: Here for rings, not watches

    The UConn Huskies are good. They came back against Duke in the Elite Eight and now they’re in Indy.

    UConn > Duke

    We shocked the world, again. Braylon Mullins hit one of the greatest buzzer beaters in college basketball history, sending Duke packing and putting the Huskies in their third Final Four in four years. It’s hard to even comprehend how the Huskies came back from a 19-point deficit that looked worse than it sounds. All we know for sure is we’ll remember this forever. Enjoy!

    Elite Eight ft. Duke

    The UConn Huskies are in the Elite Eight for the third time in four years and 14th time as a program, with 13 of those appearances coming since 1990. Up next, they take on a favored Duke team that’s the tourney’s top overall seed and, as usual, loaded with blue-chippers and NBA Draft prospects. In this episode, we discuss the Sweet 16 victory over Michigan State, driven by their senior leaders Alex Karaban and Tarris Reed Jr., and how the Huskies match up against the Blue Devils. We also discuss the success story of this season and what it would mean to take down the evil empire one more time. Enjoy! Check out our YouTube channel for press conferences and other content!

    NCAAT Preview: Appropriate Levels of Respect for Furman

    It’s that time of year, folks, to put the regular season and all of its issues in the past and look forward to another year of UConn overachievement in the NCAA Tournament. But first, Furman, a pesky Southern Conference team that was the six-seed in its conference tournament before winning three straight to punch its ticket to the dance. They have a well-coached team with solid size and shooting, and a stud leading scorer in freshman Alex Wilkins. Bob Richey’s squad also has two experienced big men who are their second- and third-leading scorers. We talk about this matchup and more in the latest episode of the Fast Break, including the sour taste of the Big East final, the East region bracket, and thoughts on who we would prefer to see in a potential second-round matchup between UCLA or UCF.

    That New March Feeling

    The haters wanted it so bad. They said the UConn Huskies didn’t have the goods because they wanted it to be true, or they were desperate for attention online. Either way, the haters are wrong, proven to be losers once again. Dan Hurley’s squad shook off the Creighton loss by thumping Villanova and walloping St. John’s before a Senior Day special from Alex Karaban to cement itself as one of the best teams in the country. In this episode, Aman and Patrick discuss: Acceptable ways to cope with a loss, the rising sense of urgency from Karaban and Tarris Reed Jr., and the team’s trajectory as we get close to the start of postseason play. No Dan Madigan in this episode, but he’s got a great excuse, we promise! Download, follow, and review us on Spotify or Apple Podcasts! Photo: Ian Bethune This is a public episode.

    Have You Tried Liking Sports?

    UConn men’s basketball beat Butler and Georgetown after losing to St. John’s, but it’s still not good enough, according to some Husky fans. If you’ve been tracking the discourse after UConn’s 79-75 win over Georgetown on Saturday, the environment at games is bad, the team isn’t great enough, and a laundry list of other complaints follows. Here at The UConn Fast Break Podcast, we refuse to give in to this negativity. This is already one of the program’s most successful seasons and part of a four-year run of excellence that UConn has never seen, if it can avoid an NCAA Tournament upset. The assembled squad is pretty good, only two years removed from consecutive titles, during a time when everything we know about team-building is evolving. In this episode, we spend about 45 minutes breaking down the St. John’s, Butler, and Georgetown performances and the highlights and concerns stewing on the court. Then we indulge in some commentary on the online discourse surrounding this year’s team, including attendance, fan fervor, and managing expectations. The Huskies have $2 Beer Night vs. Creighton on Wednesday before a big road date with Villanova on Saturday. Then they host St. John’s and Seton Hall before ending the season at Marquette, and then we have the Big East Tournament. Great times ahead! This is a public episode.

    We Are So Back (Also Never Left)

    UConn men’s basketball is 22-1, but you would not have known the season was going so well based on the tenor of the fan discourse.
